I was having a craving for pancakes. Normally I would just make a tiny batch have one and call it a day but they actually make me feel bad. They are just too heavy and of course don't stay with you too long.

I saw a Pinterest recipe for cottage cheese pancakes. There was someone talking about how light and fluffy they are and let's face it LOVE cottage cheese!

I made them for lunch today and I swear I went to heaven! I had sugar free syrup and 1/4 slice of a banana sliced on top. I also added 1/4 t cinnamon knowing I was slicing a banana. The cinnamon made them even more delicious.

Cottage Cheese Pancakes

1cup cottage cheese (I used 1percent)

3 eggs

2T canola oil

1/3 cup flour

Best the 3 eggs in a small bowl and set aside. In a med. bowl add cottage cheese, oil and flour and mix well. If you want to add cinnamon now is the time. Once combined, add egg and mix until well combined.

Heat griddle and spray with cooking spray or use butter. I made smaller cakes. I cooked them very slowly until one side was browned. You do have to be careful when you flip them as the melted cottage cheese likes to stick to your spatula. I sprayed my spatula with cooking spray before turning them.

They seem a tiny bit troublesome but my goodness they are delicious. I could only eat one and a half. Next time I will cut the recipe in half.

By the way, my tummy feels great! They are light, fluffy, eggy and cheesy but they work!

Enjoy!

I wonder if you could substitute protein powder for the flour?

and you can have them with Walden Farms Syrup. No carbs.

you can add 1/2 a tablespoon of coconut flour if you want them to fluff a little.

Mmmm... now all I want is pancakes. Thanks

I know I could substitue the white flour with almond flour... I order a great almond flour (very fine) from Nuts.com.... but am going to try these in the morning....
